A couple of years ago I went through a phase
of fuzz-testing gawk.
Having seen the recent announcement of GNU
awk 5.0 I gave it a go, but at least one issue
I reported to debian remains unfixed:
https://bugs.debian.org/816277
From the bug-report this is my sample program:
gawk -e "for (i = ) in foo bar baz"
Simple patch attached to the bug-report, though
it might not be the best. I appreciate invalid
programs are invalid, but I think a segfault is
something we should prevent.
